Sarcoma, a rare and heterogeneous cancer type, present significant diagnostic challenges due to its numerous subtypes. Molecular diagnostics and machine learning models have emerged as promising tools to enhance sarcoma diagnosis. This study, conducted at Qlucore, aims to explore the usage of these new techniques in improving sarcoma diagnostics, with a specific focus on soft tissue sarcomas. The
Currently at Axis, a local role-based access control system is used in devices, which forces the user credentials to be directly installed on the individual devices and the limited selection of roles does not allow for fine-grained access rights. This creates an administrative nightmare in a large scale network and leads to elevated privileges. Instead of this approach a profile based access contr
The digitalisation of processes in societal planning has increased the need for a more standardised approach to the visualisation of geographic information. In recent years a lot of progress has been made with regards to digital models of cities and societies. However, this does not apply to underground data and models to the same extent. The overall objective of this report is to identify areas o

This study explores the idea of flat organizational structures, which are gaining popularity due to their capacity to foster innovation and collaboration. Nevertheless, social interactions inside these organizations can still result in the emergence of social hierarchies, and some employees may hold positions of greater authority and status than others. Therefore, we examine how social hierarchies
This thesis analyses the relation between working hours and four different economic outcomes, productivity, employment, wellbeing, and fertility. The first part of the analysis focusses on regressions of five different measures of weekly average working hours on the economic outcomes, while the second part deals with extensions that makes groups based on average income and mean working hours. Whil
This thesis investigated the perceptions of the identity of the ethnic Chinese minority in Vietnam. During the 2010s, tensions were high in the South China Sea between Vietnam and China, and Vietnamese citizens were taking to the street to express their disapproval of China. This thesis explored the possible repercussion of these geopolitical tensions and aimed to determine whether there is a chan
The appearance anxiety phenomenon has become increasingly prevalent in Chinese society, especially among females. This research critically examines the Chinese social media trend “Refusing Appearance Anxiety” (“拒绝容貌焦虑”)initiated by female bloggers who are opposing the issue. The primary goal of this study is to reflect on how Chinese females negotiate with the normative discourse around body image
The current industrial method of producing calcium formate requires a lot of energy and releases vast amounts of carbon dioxide. However, it has been demonstrated that direct synthesis of calcium formate from calcium carbonate is possible via direct reaction with carbon dioxide by using catalysis. Furthermore, this possibility is of great interest since calcium carbonate is one of the main waste p

The thesis researches work undertaken by big accounting firms and the professional association FAR to promote sustainability assurance in a Swedish context from the perspective of institutional work theory.

Skin cancer is a growing public health concern due to its prevalence among the population. Current clinical procedures require high invasiveness and multiple surgeries, which are responsible for patient discomfort and high medical expenses. Photoacoustic imaging offers an alternative to standard skin carcinoma diagnosis by exploiting the low scattering rate of ultrasound, which enables deep tissue
Browning of water has increased over the last couple of decades on the northern hemisphere. Research show that possible drivers for this change are land use change, climate change, increased precipitation and increased temperatures. Browning of water can affect important interactions in the aquatic ecosystem which in turn can affect the whole structure of the ecosystem. Furthermore the loss of a t
The use of chemicals is increasing. Human health and the environment are exposed to hazardous substances along a lack of knowledge about how these substances actually affect us and our environment. In the homes, the use of chemical cleaning products is widespread. Various products meet many important needs, but could at the same time pose major risks to human health and the environment if not corr
This research examines the relationship between Exports and GDP Growth as China transitioned from Import Substitution (IS) to Export Promotion (EP) as their strategy to industrialize. China has experienced remarkable economic growth over the years, becoming one of the world’s largest economies. A common claim is that China’s economic success is due to increased Exports. According to the Export-Led
Historically, inhabitants have always altered their domestic spaces to adapt to different environmental conditions and to meet personal needs. Especially in rural dwellings, lowtech but very effective and simple ways of adaptations have been and are still in use. These methods stand more than ever diametral to the way we dwell and use our domestic spaces today. All the building ele- ments are gett
Studies show that employees are an organisation’s most important asset. Therefore, an employer needs to attract the desired future employees. Currently, core values appear frequently on employers’ websites. Core values could consequently operate as a part of external employer branding to attract candidates. The question remains whether core values matter to future employees when considering workin
The purpose of this study is to enhance the understanding of the use of discourses and their rhetorical design in corporate sustainability reports for securing and sustaining legitimacy over time within an industry that has an inherently adverse impact on the environment and has been subject to a variety of contextual changes within recent years. The purpose is fulfilled by conducting a three-leve
